Girlfriend Nicknames

Girlfriend nicknames are not something you should design by purpose – but something that evolves naturally as the relationship matures.

If you have to give it a lot of thought, the fun gets spoilt. As you two get closer, you may pick up a special feature of your girlfriend – something about the way she looks, or something about her nature – and assign it to be your nickname for her.

As a general rule, nicknames are forms of endearment. Put in context, girlfriend nicknames symbolize your intimacy, and give a cozy feel to your bonding.

As a mandate, nicknames should be one on one – highly personal, sometimes even a secret. Your girlfriend may not be very comfortable if you talk about such intimate things in public or share such facts with friends or even family.

She may prefer that the name remain between the two of you only. She may not like being called by it by someone else. Nicknames could be simply anything you both feel comfortable with. They should be easy to hear and easy to say – simplicity is the key to coining nicknames.

Finally, it should be kept in mind that girlfriend nicknames should give happiness to the recipient and not hurt her feelings in any way. There is a difference between calling names and giving nicknames. You should be mature enough to differentiate between the two unless you are looking to deliberately offend your girl. If your girl is sensitive about a trait in her, you better let it be on its own rather than emphasize upon it by making it her nickname. Sensitivity and respect are two things that give a relationship a firm footing. Adhere to this simple rule, and your girl will surely enjoy having a special name meant just for her coined by the love of her life.

Short Pet Names for Girlfriend:

Short pet names for girlfriend serve two purposes – firstly, they shorten a name for easy reference in case she has a long name; and, secondly, they give your relationship a touch of warmth and express your mutual affinity. Sometimes, these pet names can be derived simply by shortening the full form of the formal name. Example – Elizabeth becomes Lisa or Beth, Patricia becomes Pat or Patty, etc. Or you may give it a touch of your wit and humor and come up with something short, crisp and original. Your pet name for her could be anything as long as both of you feel comfortable with the name. Make sure your girl lights up every time she hears you call her by her special name. So think of a name she’d like to hear from you again and again – something that would convey to her how special she is to you.
